    I have successfully sent multiple emails using the 360Works Email plugin. The error I am getting now comes at the EmailSend function and returns an EmailLastError of "Invalid Addresses". I have one email address in the "to" field and 10 email addresses the BCC field. I have used every possible Email filter and validator I know (including the IsValidEmail function) to make sure the email addresses are valid. However no matter what I do, I am still getting the "Invalid Addresses" error and thus the email is failing to send. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

    Hey everyone, A client is using this plug-in for mass emails (looped through, one at a time). While trying to send about 1300 individual emails, about 100 of the email addresses were changed to include some strange characters in them. For example, an email of [email protected] became the following: "ÿHarvey.Wallbanger"@something.gc.ca It inserts the quotes, and that foreign character at the beginning -- but it is not always the same character! Here is the formula that is used to create and send the email. EmailCreate( $$userEmail ; CONTACT::email ; CONTACT::zcg_emailSubject ) and If ( CONTACT::zcg_e…

    I work for a photocopier company My challenge is that I want to send an html meter request to customers each month and I want their MC ID, Company Name, Model and Meter reading method to be shown in each message. I have worked out how to get them to enter the data into a table that I can then "parse" to get the meter readings into a specific field. My question is how I do the replace- Do I need to have a replace text for each field that I wish to replace. I am probably being dense but struggling with this concept.

If it does one, why not the others? Using FM v. 11 on a Mac running Snow Leopard.

  12. I am migrating an email processing solution that used to run in a FM Pro client robot to a FMSA version running with recurring scheduled events. With the FM client the logic of my script would store the attachment in a field and then I would do the step: Export Field [Email_Attachments::Object; "$attachment_path" ] // Which is not compatible with FM Server // so I could finally import the csv attachment as records into another FM table Import Records [No dialog; Source:"$attachment_path" ; Add ; Windows ANSI ] My problem is I cannot use the Export Field command in Server. Using the Email Plug-in I thought, no problem: I don't need the Export Field …

    Hi, I'm new to the plugin, can anyone tell me if it performs well with SMTP reverse lookups? I take it that the Filemaker server or client functions as the SMTP server in this case and does the actual mailing. If the recipient does a reverse lookup, I would imagine it would see that it doesn't match. Anybody any experience of this and of how we can get around it (I'm thinking MX records here...) Thanks, Gary

    I have created a runtime solution which uses the e mail plugin. This runs with no problems in Mac OSX and in Windows XP but when I try it in Vista I get a message telling me it can not open the programme. If I delete the plugin from the extensions file (and recycle bin) the database opens fine. I am trailing this with the trial version of the plug in. Does anyone know if this problem occurs in the full version. I do not want to buy this for my client if they can not make it run on their Vista PC's. Does anyone know a solution? Many thanks John

    I want to use the Emailbody Substitute multiple times on the same block of text but for different search strings. For example the fist section of text is Dear 1 2 I would want to replace 1 with the field Title and 2 with the field last name. When I do this it only does the second one. This is the calculation I used: EmailBodySubstitute( "1" ; Customers::Title) and EmailBodySubstitute( "2" ; Customers::Last_Name) Is there a way to fix this? NB. I have tried putting all of the text together in a field in the database first and simply doing the replace with all of the text but this does not take any line breaks.
